This dataset includes Surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from AURORA AUSTRALIS in the Indian Ocean, South Pacific Ocean, Southern Oceans (> 60 degrees South) and Tasman Sea from 2014-01-29 to 2015-01-24. These data include AIR-SEA DIFFERENCE - PARTIAL PRESSURE (OR FUGACITY) OF CARBON DIOXIDE, BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - atmosphere, Partial pressure (or fugacity) of carbon dioxide - water, SALINITY, SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE, WIND DIRECTION and WIND SPEED. The instruments used to collect these data include Barometric pressure sensor and Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas analyzer.

These data were collected by Bronte Tilbrook, Craig Neill and John Akl of Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization as part of the VOS_Aurora_Australis_AA_09AR20140129, VOS_Aurora_Australis_AA_09AR20140309, VOS_Aurora_Australis_AA_09AR20141022 and VOS_Aurora_Australis_AA_09AR20141205 data set. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this data set: 09AR20140129, 09AR20140309, 09AR20141022 and 09AR20141205
